Louisiana: Committee Hearing for NRA-Backed Bill Set for Tomorrow!

The House Committee on Administration of Criminal Justice is scheduled to hold a hearing on Senate Bill 39 tomorrow, in committee room 6 at 9:30 a.m. This legislation passed unanimously in the state Senate two weeks ago. Sponsored by state Senators Eric LaFleur (D-28) and Neil Riser (R-32), SB 39 would clarify that Louisianans may purchase a long gun in any state, and allow a citizen of any other state to purchase a long gun in Louisiana, so long as both states allow such purchases.
